Damnit that's actually a mistake he should be swapped for Christoffer Ehn. Lazar was on my short list rough draft. But yeah he's just mediocre not bad.

If your team signs Christoffer Ehn they get cursed for a decade, it's like breaking a mirror, he sucks so bad it's almost painful: legit Tanner Glass level player

He can't even spell his damn name properly

Are you kidding me bro

Miller? He's a solid top6 D when healthy and Lindholm is reliable defensively, you're probably getting stopped at points.

Glendening, Paquette aren't good but still useful sometimes
Andreoff, Salomaki, McCarron, Santini, Prosser, Stanley, Carlsson aren't even NHLers
Jack Johnson??

Some of these guys aren't even NHLers to begin with, so I think it's unfair to include them.

You should have a rule that to be included in this list, players must have played 80+ games across the past 2 seasons or 40+ games last season.

He was decent last year, actually was the sabres best faceoff man, he would start all OT periods and rarely lost a faceoff

What is the criteria for this list? I count 9 who aren't even in the NHL...it looks like you just included 4th liners or6/7 D and while they aren't the flashiest players, they do still serve a purpose. I would argue that about half shouldn't make this list.

Still not one of the worst three in the NHL.

Dubnyk .890 / 3.35
Rinne .895 / 3.17
Jones .896 / 3.00
Holtby .897 / 3.11
Hutton .898 / 3.18
Murray .899 / 2.87
Elliot .899 / 2.87
Bobrovsky .900 / 3.23
Anderson .902 / 3.25

All guys with worse sv% and 30+ GP.

Well, neither was signed to play in a single NHL game last season. So yes, 31 GM's agreed with you over a year ago

Yep. Smith is fine (just overpaid on this year's market), so long as Tippett doesn't forget he's 39 years old and insists on playing him half the games. In a 60 game season, hoping for a 40/20 split between him and Koskinen

Would disagree with Carlsson. Id still consider him a prospect. Hes 22 and dmen like him take long to develop. Look at Savard for example.


If he has another bad year then yeah I'd have him here.

I.E., they cannot be considered as "in the NHL".
